Thank you very much.

but beside the weather sealing, two of my main concerns are the 16mp vs 24mp and the fact that I may not be able to change body for at least 3 years...

AF speed is not that important to me, most of the time I use manual focus lenses and in landscape I usually take a slow approach.

That’s what’s stalling me...

Only you can answer whether you truly “need” the 24mp sensor over the 16.  Aside from resolution the difference between them is not so great in terms of DR and low light performance in my opinion.  16mp is the same amount it was four years ago when the XT1 came out, more than enough for some reasonably large prints.

The fact that you won’t be using autofocus takes away one of the key advantages of the newer camera and sensor.  At the same time, the XT1 has a major advantage when it comes to manual focus, as the bigger EVF is so much better for that.

In three years neither of these cameras will be current and TEAS will have declared them both obsolete...
